That 7 year old bike tho is a Probike Laser  Cost about £150 at the time, my brother would've been no older than 15 when he bought it. The weight in it is unbeliveable, when he got it we was always doing wheelies and that and it was so hard to get the front wheel up cos of the weight, my bike at the time was still cheap shit but it was loads lighter, much easier to ride, this one I've only really used it for riding to work a few years ago, it hasn't really been used for nearly 3 years

I love how they rate trails. Some of the red routes round Dalby were HARD and only a couple of the black ones were EASY
But sometimes it was the correct way round
On the 2nd time round, we fixed it. When the black went easy, we took the red coz it then went hard
